[NTLK] Christchurch Earthquake

[Tony Kan]

Thanks for all the support everyone.

16 hours so far of intermittent aftershocks (about one every 40 minutes or so) and one starts to wonder when it will all end.

Occasionally you can hear it coming.

They say they will continue for up to 48 hours after the initial earthquake and there is a likelihood that one of them could match or exceed the initial earthquake in magnitude.  Yay.

Needless to say I have blogged about the experience:  http://myapplenewton.blogspot.com/2010/09/christchurch-earthquake.html

Amazing that there is so much material devastation and no fatalities (yet).

Cheers
